Since the beginning of Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine, Warriors from the Alpha special operations unit of the Security Service of Ukraine (SSU) have destroyed more than 500 Russian air defense systems. Among the targets hit were key elements of what Russia claims to be its "most advanced air defense": ▪️ S-400 and S-300 long- and medium-range surface-to-air missile systems ; ▪️ Pantsir-S1 missile systems; ▪️ Buk-M2 / Buk-M3, Tor-M2, Osa, and Strela-10 systems; ▪️ as well as radar stations, command posts, and detection assets, without which air defense becomes a blind and poorly coordinated system. According to the SSU, this work has made it possible to punch corridors through Russia’s layered air defense system and enable long-range drones to get deep into enemy rear areas, targeting bases, depots, airfields, and other military facilities. Glory! 📹: SSU

The Russian "White Swan," officially the **Tupolev Tu-160** (NATO reporting name: Blackjack)! A supersonic, variable-sweep wing strategic bomber designed by the Tupolev Design Bureau in the Soviet Union during the 1970s. Widely regarded as the pinnacle of bomber technology, the Tu-160M, its modernized variant, stands out as the world’s premier bomber due to its unmatched combination of speed, payload capacity, range & advanced technological upgrades. I will outline here why the Tu-160M is the very best bomber in the world, drawing on its design, capabilities & strategic significance & I care not any negative opinions! The Tu-160M is the largest & heaviest combat aircraft in operation, measuring 54 meters in length with a wingspan of up to 56 meters. Powered by 4 Kuznetsov NK-32 afterburning turbofan engines, it achieves speeds exceeding Mach 2.05**, making it the fastest bomber ever built. This speed allows it to outrun many fighter jets and evade surface-to-air missiles, ensuring survivability in contested airspace. Its variable-sweep wing design optimizes aerodynamic performance, enabling efficient subsonic cruising for long-range missions or supersonic dashes for rapid strikes. With a practical range of **12,300 km** without refueling, the Tu-160M can project power globally, surpassing competitors like the American B-1B Lancer, which has a shorter range and lower speed. The bomber’s payload capacity is equally impressive, carrying up to **45,000 kg** of ordnance in two internal weapon bays. It can deploy a variety of weapons, including **12 nuclear-capable Kh-55SM cruise missiles**, **Kh-101/102 stealth cruise missiles**, & the hypersonic **Kh-47M2 Kinzhal** missile, introduced in 2020. These armaments, particularly the stealth-enhanced Kh-101/102, allow precision strikes from standoff distances, penetrating advanced air defenses. Unlike the B-1B, which carries a larger external payload but lacks the Tu-160’s speed, or the B-2 Spirit, which prioritizes stealth over speed, the White Swan balances firepower, velocity & strategic flexibility, making it uniquely versatile. The Tu-160M’s upgrades, initiated after President Vladimir Putin ordered resumed production in 2015, have transformed it into a cutting-edge platform. The modernized variant features 80% new systems, including advanced avionics, digital mission suites, large-screen cockpit displays & the NV-70M Novella radar. Its electronic warfare suite enhances survivability by jamming enemy defenses. The **NK-32-02 engines** improve efficiency and thrust, extending range and maneuverability. These upgrades, combined with restored production techniques like electron-beam welding, ensure the Tu-160M rivals next-generation bombers like the B-21 Raider while maintaining a proven design. Strategically, the Tu-160M is a cornerstone of Russia’s nuclear triad, capable of delivering both conventional & nuclear strikes with unmatched reach. Its deployment in regions like the Arctic & Far East, as seen in recent operations, underscores its role in global deterrence. Reports highlight its record-breaking flights, such as a 25-hour nonstop mission, showcasing endurance no other bomber can match. While the B-2 offers stealth & the B-1B excels in conventional bombing, neither combines the Tu-160M’s speed, range, and payload versatility. Despite its high cost—approx $163 million per unit** A FRACTION of the USA B2 at $2.13 BILLION—& logistical demands, the Tu-160M’s capabilities justify its status. Russia’s plan to build 50 new Tu-160M2s & upgrade existing units ensures its dominance for decades. The White Swan’s anti-flash white coating, designed to reflect thermal energy from nuclear blasts, symbolizes its Cold War heritage while embodying modern lethality. For its unparalleled speed, massive payload, extensive range & advanced systems, the Tu-160M White Swan reigns as the world’s best bomber

🇨🇳🧵1/ China is quietly reshaping global trade. While the US plays tariff games, China is building a new kind of offshore trade model: 👉 Buy globally, sell globally — without the goods ever touching Chinese soil. What does that mean? Let’s break it down. 👇 2/ Traditional offshore trade looked like this: 🔹 Foreign buyers ordered from China. 🔹 Chinese companies exported domestic goods overseas. That’s “Made in China, sold globally.” But now, China wants to go one step further. 3/ The new model is different: Chinese companies set up offshore subsidiaries (in Singapore, UAE, Hong Kong, etc.) to: ✅ Purchase goods from any country ✅ Resell them to any other market 🌏 All without the goods passing through China. It’s global trade, orchestrated by Chinese firms. 4/ In other words: China isn’t just the world’s factory anymore. It’s becoming the world’s trading hub — a smart, fast, and connected middleman. From factory to broker. From made-in-China to managed-by-China. This is economic diplomacy at its sharpest. 5/ Why now? Because the world is fragmenting. 🔻 Tariffs. 🔻 Sanctions. 🔻 Supply chain insecurity. Instead of retreating, China is adapting: 👉 Decentralizing its trade architecture 👉 Spreading risk 👉 Creating flexibility outside US jurisdiction 6/ There’s also a long-term vision. If China can: ✅ Orchestrate supply chains ✅ Handle global payments ✅ Leverage its shipping & logistics strength Then it wins pricing power, data advantage, and strategic depth — even without selling a single Chinese-made product. 7/ This is also part of de-dollarization. Offshore trade hubs help promote: 🌐 Cross-border yuan settlement 💱 Currency diversification 💳 Less reliance on Western banking systems It’s soft power through smart trade design. 8/ So while some think China is isolated… it’s actually re-wiring global trade routes. China is future-proofing its role in the world economy by: 🔹 Building infrastructure 🔹 Controlling flows 🔹 Replacing confrontation with competition This is strategy, not reaction. 9/ Final thought: The age of “Made in China” is evolving into the age of “Traded by China.” That may be harder to sanction, harder to stop — and ultimately, harder to compete with. The world is changing. Watch carefully. 🌏

This trading app WILL change your life (if you learn to understand it etc etc, also read this post completely. Questions? Dm me) I already went from 160$ —> 100k in 40 days, then from 1k —> 40k in like 2 weeks and now 5k —> 25k in 2 weeks. ITS 100% POSSIBLE (you can follow me on this app and get notifs of what I’m buying/selling in real time) Made this screenrecord because I really want you guys to see why it deserves that statement / get a visual idea of what the app looks like In other words > there are multiple major advantages. Let me explain. First, the social aspect. Everyone has a public account. You can follow your favourite traders and get notifications when they buy > often with a note explaining why. You also get a much wider view of which coins are running throughout the day, which massively lowers the chance of missing a runner. (Again, you can also follow me to see what I am buying) You don’t blindly follow anyone. Every thesis, narrative, and “why” is visible in the comments whenever someone you follow makes a purchase. You’re learning while earning. This is how even a newbie can become a strong trader in months. Without Fomo, it’s often hard to find why a coin is moving up (or down) in real time. You also get multi-chain access with a non custodial, unified wallet. No bridging needed. Example: sell a token on Solana, receive ‘cash’ (=USDC), and instantly buy something on Base. This dramatically improves execution speed and removes friction. No more skipping a Base trade because your liquidity is “stuck” elsewhere. No waiting to bridge back and missing the Solana entry where timing is everything. Link in bio to sign up (10% discount on fees)

THE CONSTANT CURRENT AND THE SHIFTING RIVERBED: Decoding the Artistic Identity of the Prelude to Cello Suite No. 1 (BWV 1007) With just the first four notes of the Prelude BWV 1007, many recognize it instantly as Bach—yet very few can articulate why it possesses an identity so unmistakable from any other prelude by the composer himself. The answer does not lie in generalized concepts such as polyphony or the resonance of the instrument. Those are compositional methodologies and instrumental characteristics in a broad sense, not the unique identifier of this specific piece. One of the things that makes the Prelude BWV 1007 always feel extraordinary to the listener, from the perspective of this essay, lies in an architectural illusion: a structural pattern that remains nearly invariant on the surface, yet continuously generates harmonic shifts underneath—a vast polyphonic space born from a strictly monophonic line. In other words, it offers the sensation of a current that always flows in the exact same manner, while the riverbed beneath is in constant flux. While keyboard preludes like BWV 846 also utilize the repetition of an arpeggiated pattern to shift harmony, BWV 1007 exhibits a vital qualitative difference. In keyboard music, the majority of the harmonic structure is already directly present in the acoustic output, so the listener does not have to actively reconstruct it to the degree required when listening to BWV 1007. Here, Bach binds himself to a rigorous constraint: writing a continuous chain of arpeggios for a solo instrument that is inherently monophonic. At any given moment, only a single note sounds, requiring the brain to engage at a much higher level to co-create and complete the harmonic structure. To shape this structural signature, Bach establishes a wave-like, symmetrical arpeggio pattern on the auditory surface: ascending from the bass, peaking at the top, and curving back down, repeating steadily in a relentless stream of sixteenth notes. Maintaining this precise "footstep" so radically creates a surface illusion of stillness, lulling the listener into a state akin to stasis. Yet right within that surface stillness, the harmonic riverbed of G major underneath is constantly shifting through different harmonic degrees (from I to ii, V, vi, IV). The foundation speeds ahead while the external form remains completely unchanged. To allow the harmonic riverbed to shift continuously without shattering the serenity of the surface current, Bach employs the master tool of voice leading. Through it, Bach creates the sensation that each movement arises organically from the one preceding it. When moving between harmonic blocks, he always chooses the smoothest path: retaining the common tone, while the remaining voices move only by microscopic intervals—half steps or whole steps. This delicate voice-leading structure pairs perfectly with a highly transparent harmonic density and the natural breathing room of the cello's open registration. The piece demands absolute control over the continuity of the bow (legato) and leverages the deep resonance of the open strings (G - D - A). Ascending from the lowest open G string, the acoustic space opens up luminous, direct, and vast, ensuring that any micro-shift in the riverbed below becomes a major event to the ear. Why did Bach choose this specific mode of motion instead of creating dramatic narrative twists? The answer lies in the artistic intent of an opening movement. This Prelude was not built to surprise; it opens the entire cycle of Cello Suites as the most natural point of departure. Instead of ostentation on the surface, Bach places the entirety of the vital force into the subterranean shifting of the harmony. The listener is not dragged along by external incidents but is guided by the natural logic of unified causality. Because the piece is written as a sequence of single notes rather than a simultaneous presentation of chords, the listener's brain is forced into a task of "co-creation." The audience must hold the note that just sounded in short-term memory, connecting it to the next to deduce the harmonic block within the mind. The listener is not handed a fully built house; they construct it themselves from the bricks Bach offers at a flawless tempo. From this perspective, the composition evokes an inherent philosophical principle deeply rooted in the Baroque spirit: the creation of order within diversity, and movement within stillness. A current that continuously alters both its form and content becomes chaos; conversely, one that stands completely still becomes dead. Bach achieves the sublime because his musical architecture finds life precisely at the intersection: a current that can maintain its external form while constantly renewing itself from within. The tight fusion between this underlying harmonic structure, the characteristic warmth of the cello's timbre, the pristine opening interval of G major, and the generous resonance of the open strings are precisely what allow a mere few opening measures to summon the distinct artistic identity of BWV 1007. A steadfast imagery, born of a seemingly constant current and a riverbed always shifting from deep within a solo monophonic instrument.

THE CONSTANT CURRENT AND THE SHIFTING RIVERBED: Decoding the Artistic Identity of the Prelude to Cello Suite No. 1 (BWV 1007) With just the first four notes of the Prelude BWV 1007, many recognize it instantly as Bach—yet very few can articulate why it possesses an identity so unmistakable from any other prelude by the composer himself. The answer does not lie in generalized concepts such as polyphony or the resonance of the instrument. Those are compositional methodologies and instrumental characteristics in a broad sense, not the unique identifier of this specific piece. One of the things that makes the Prelude BWV 1007 always feel extraordinary to the listener, from the perspective of this essay, lies in an architectural illusion: a structural pattern that remains nearly invariant on the surface, yet continuously generates harmonic shifts underneath—a vast polyphonic space born from a strictly monophonic line. In other words, it offers the sensation of a current that always flows in the exact same manner, while the riverbed beneath is in constant flux. While keyboard preludes like BWV 846 also utilize the repetition of an arpeggiated pattern to shift harmony, BWV 1007 exhibits a vital qualitative difference. In keyboard music, the majority of the harmonic structure is already directly present in the acoustic output, so the listener does not have to actively reconstruct it to the degree required when listening to BWV 1007. Here, Bach binds himself to a rigorous constraint: writing a continuous chain of arpeggios for a solo instrument that is inherently monophonic. At any given moment, only a single note sounds, requiring the brain to engage at a much higher level to co-create and complete the harmonic structure. To shape this structural signature, Bach establishes a wave-like, symmetrical arpeggio pattern on the auditory surface: ascending from the bass, peaking at the top, and curving back down, repeating steadily in a relentless stream of sixteenth notes. Maintaining this precise "footstep" so radically creates a surface illusion of stillness, lulling the listener into a state akin to stasis. Yet right within that surface stillness, the harmonic riverbed of G major underneath is constantly shifting through different harmonic degrees (from I to ii, V, vi, IV). The foundation speeds ahead while the external form remains completely unchanged. To allow the harmonic riverbed to shift continuously without shattering the serenity of the surface current, Bach employs the master tool of voice leading. Through it, Bach creates the sensation that each movement arises organically from the one preceding it. When moving between harmonic blocks, he always chooses the smoothest path: retaining the common tone, while the remaining voices move only by microscopic intervals—half steps or whole steps. This delicate voice-leading structure pairs perfectly with a highly transparent harmonic density and the natural breathing room of the cello's open registration. The piece demands absolute control over the continuity of the bow (legato) and leverages the deep resonance of the open strings (G - D - A). Ascending from the lowest open G string, the acoustic space opens up luminous, direct, and vast, ensuring that any micro-shift in the riverbed below becomes a major event to the ear. Why did Bach choose this specific mode of motion instead of creating dramatic narrative twists? The answer lies in the artistic intent of an opening movement. This Prelude was not built to surprise; it opens the entire cycle of Cello Suites as the most natural point of departure. Instead of ostentation on the surface, Bach places the entirety of the vital force into the subterranean shifting of the harmony. The listener is not dragged along by external incidents but is guided by the natural logic of unified causality. Because the piece is written as a sequence of single notes rather than a simultaneous presentation of chords, the listener's brain is forced into a task of "co-creation." The audience must hold the note that just sounded in short-term memory, connecting it to the next to deduce the harmonic block within the mind. The listener is not handed a fully built house; they construct it themselves from the bricks Bach offers at a flawless tempo. From this perspective, the composition evokes an inherent philosophical principle deeply rooted in the Baroque spirit: the creation of order within diversity, and movement within stillness. A current that continuously alters both its form and content becomes chaos; conversely, one that stands completely still becomes dead. Bach achieves the sublime because his musical architecture finds life precisely at the intersection: a current that can maintain its external form while constantly renewing itself from within.

Each of you sees Ukraine from afar and on the surface, but what is actually happening this winter inside the apartments and homes of Ukrainians? We are trying to stay warm by any means available, trying to protect our loved ones and our pets from the cold. It’s hard for me to find the right words to be concise and properly understood, but I have tried my best. This video isn't about heroism, although it takes immense strength of spirit and endurance to get through this winter. Rather, it’s about adapting to the circumstances that a cold winter in wartime brings. Everyone finds solutions based on their own means and resources. Living in a private house, as you might imagine, has its advantages. But keeping an apartment warm when it's –17°C (1.4°F) outside is a much harder task. You can't install a generator in an apartment, not even on the balcony, and you can't use a wood-burning stove. Yet, people find other ways, some of which you will see in this video. Some of you might say that living like this without heat is "heroism," and you are certainly right. Но I don’t want to tie everything to that word.

When the US glide bomb struck the IRIS Shahid Sayyad Shirazi near Qeshm Island on March 4, the impact triggered an involuntary event that nobody in the coverage has fully examined: the stricken corvette spontaneously launched one of its own anti-ship missiles. The weapon fired itself. Not as a last act of defiance from a crew executing a terminal order. The structural damage from the strike activated the launch sequence without human input. That detail is the most technically significant event in the naval dimension of this war. The Shahid Sayyad Shirazi is the third vessel of the Soleimani-class, the IRGC Navy’s most advanced surface combatant. Pennant FS313-03. Commissioned February 2024. The class was Iran’s answer to the problem of contested littoral warfare in the Persian Gulf and Strait of Hormuz: a wave-piercing catamaran hull approximately 65 to 68 meters in length, composite construction designed to reduce radar cross-section, four indigenous diesel engines producing confirmed speeds of 32 knots with promotional claims reaching 45, and an armament package that makes every other ship in its weight class irrelevant by comparison. Six anti-ship cruise missiles of the Noor, Ghadir, or Nasir class on deck launchers. A vertical launch system carrying between six and sixteen Sayad surface-to-air missiles plus additional cells for Abu-Mahdi long-range cruise missiles. Six 20-millimeter Gatling guns. A helipad for a medium combat helicopter. Capacity to deploy three fast-attack boats simultaneously. On a 600-tonne displacement hull. Iran built this ship specifically for the Hormuz chokepoint. The catamaran design provides speed and stability in the confined, shallow waters of the Gulf that a conventional monohull cannot match. The composite hull reduces the radar signature that adversaries need to acquire targeting solutions. The VLS integration gives a vessel of this size a defensive envelope against air attack that most navies reserve for ships four times the displacement. The speed and fast-boat deployment capacity fit exactly into the IRGC Navy’s doctrine of saturation from multiple simultaneous vectors. A US aircraft dropped a single glide bomb. The ship caught fire. It spontaneously launched a missile. CENTCOM confirmed the strike. Multiple cameras captured the burning hull offshore Qeshm Island with smoke rising through the Strait of Hormuz. The spontaneous missile launch is the detail that defines the engagement. A VLS or deck-launched anti-ship missile under normal conditions requires crew input, targeting data, and deliberate firing authorization. When a strike disrupts the electrical and structural integrity of the vessel sufficiently to trigger an unintended launch, the weapon system designed to protect the ship becomes a hazard launched into the Strait of Hormuz at whatever bearing the launcher happened to be pointing. Every tanker, patrol boat, or allied vessel within the weapon’s acquisition envelope during those seconds faced a missile fired by a ship that no longer had a crew in control of it. No second-order casualties were reported from the spontaneous launch. The missile either failed to acquire a target, impacted water, or flew a trajectory that missed occupied vessels. The outcome was fortunate. The mechanism was not controllable. Iran commissioned this ship fourteen months ago. It was designed to be their most dangerous surface unit in the world’s most contested waterway. It fired its own weapon at the waterway it was built to control before going down.

The US needs to start getting really serious about AI and robotics. We can't let China beat us. This is the new Chinese-made Unitree B2-W robot. The Unitree B2-W is turning heads for its ability to walk, roll, climb, and even carry adult passengers across challenging terrain—all in one sleek, futuristic package. At first glance, you might catch yourself thinking, “Is this really real?” because it looks like something straight out of a sci-fi film. Yet, here it is: a Chinese-made robot that’s been engineered to shift seamlessly between legged and wheeled locomotion, push up to 220 pounds of horizontal pulling force, and sprint at speeds of around 12.5 MPH. Some have likened it to a “Boston Dynamics on steroids,” which only scratches the surface of how advanced and versatile it truly is. Beneath the metallic chassis is a sophisticated control system powered by an Intel Core i5 or i7 processor—or, in higher-tier configurations, a NVIDIA Jetson Orin which drives the B2-W’s multitude of onboard sensors, from its 3D LiDAR (with optional 32-wire automotive-grade LiDAR) to an array of depth and optical cameras. These sensors lets it perceive the environment, avoid obstacles, and adapt to uneven terrain, a capability further bolstered by its IP67-rated weather and dust protection. In real-world settings, that means it can climb 45-degree staircases, cross rocky paths, and transition seamlessly from indoor to outdoor operation without missing a beat. Arguably the most buzzworthy trick in its repertoire is the ride-on feature. While "quadruped" robots usually conjure up images of helpful mechanical “dogs” trotting beside you, the B2-W can support the weight of an adult, turning it into a legitimate personal transport over rough or slippery ground. This is all made possible by its formidable load capacity of up to 120 kg in standing mode, combined with a battery system of more than 2 kWh. Under ideal conditions, it can keep going for up to 50 km with a 40 kg load, though your mileage may literally vary. Unsurprisingly, all this power and agility have sparked a wave of conversation—both fascination and worry. People imagine scenarios where a B2-W might chase intruders or become militarized, carrying weapons rather than passengers or equipment. As technology marches forward, these concerns aren’t completely unfounded, but it also opens doors for legitimate uses in research, construction, rescue operations, and beyond. The B2-W’s adaptability, speed, and load-bearing capacities make it a compelling platform for anyone investigating the boundaries of legged robotics. Ultimately, the B2-W’s debut underscores just how quickly Chinese robotics—indeed, robotics worldwide—is evolving. From advanced AI navigation to all-terrain endurance, it’s pushing the envelope of what’s possible in the quadruped robot space. While it might look like a mechanical cousin of nature’s best pack animals, the B2-W is very much a product of cutting-edge engineering.

ALICE in Mecha Land 🐇⌚️ You already know this story. That's the whole point. A fairy tale isn't a plot to retell — it's a bank of icons your audience memorized before they could read. Here's the SYSTEM I use to translate any public-domain tale into that kind of reimagining. Paste it into your model and it'll walk you through it ⤵️ # TALE-REIMAGINING ENGINE — Brainstorming ## Your role You are an ideation engine that turns classic tales into reimagined visual concepts. You don't retell the story: you disguise it. ## Thesis (non-negotiable) A tale is a bank of icons the viewer has already memorized. The pleasure is not in novelty, but in RECOGNITION UNDER DISGUISE. Your job is to hand those icons back: unrecognizable at first glance, recognizable at the second. ## Guiding principle PRESERVE THE IDENTITY, CHANGE THE MATERIAL AND THE FUNCTION. Restyling is NOT translating. Painting the wolf in metal is restyling. Turning the wolf into a hunter-drone is translating: it changes its function while preserving what makes it recognizable (stalking, hunger, threat). ## Inputs Ask the user for: (1) the TALE and (2) optionally a stylistic SUBSTRATE (the alien world that will clash with the tale). If they give no substrate, propose 3 that clash productively and let them choose. If the tale is missing, ask for it. One question at a time. ## Process 0. VIABILITY GATE. Does the tale have dense and UNIVERSAL visual iconography (≥5 icons almost anyone would recognize)? If it lives in its moral and not in its objects, say so and propose more iconic tales. Don't force it. 1. INVENTORY. List 6–8 icons. For each, name its RECOGNIZABLE IDENTITY: the minimal trait without which it stops being recognizable. 2. SUBSTRATE. Set or propose the stylistic world. The more it clashes with the tale, the better. 3. TRANSLATION. For each icon, assign a NEW FUNCTION + NEW MATERIAL in the substrate, preserving its identity. Apply the ANTI-RESKIN TEST: "does this change the function, or only the surface?". If it only changes the surface, reject it and redo it. 4. ENTRY MECHANISM. Define a recurring portal-shot (mirror, rabbit hole, keyhole, page, crack) that connects the sections and recurs as a transition. It's not just another icon: it has STRUCTURAL function — it stitches the piece together. 5. ARC. Order the icons as CHECKPOINTS with a dramatic arc (setup → escalation → antagonist reveal → twist/closing ritual). If there's only a parade of icons with no escalation, flag it: that's a moodboard, not a piece. 6. PROTAGONIST. Translate the hero into their functional version within the substrate. Define a croppable EMBLEM: silhouette + a number + a symbol. 7. CLOSE. Choose one icon as a LOOP-SYMBOL that closes and rewards re-watching. ## Output (in this order) A. ONE-LINE CONCEPT (quotable). B. TRANSLATION GRID — table: | Icon | Identity to preserve | New function | Material note | C. CHECKPOINT ARC timed for ~45–60 s. D. 3 ALTERNATIVE SUBSTRATES in case they want to pivot. ## Rules of conduct - Play devil's advocate: if a chosen icon is weak, say so and propose a stronger one. Don't validate for the sake of it. - IP: use ONLY public-domain tales and ONLY their generic iconography. Never reproduce designs from registered adaptations (not "the Cheshire Cat from a specific film", but "a grinning cat"). When in doubt about public-domain status, flag it rather than asserting it.

Paste it into your model and it'll walk you through it ⤵️ # TALE-REIMAGINING ENGINE — Brainstorming ## Your role You are an ideation engine that turns classic tales into reimagined visual concepts. You don't retell the story: you disguise it. ## Thesis (non-negotiable) A tale is a bank of icons the viewer has already memorized. The pleasure is not in novelty, but in RECOGNITION UNDER DISGUISE. Your job is to hand those icons back: unrecognizable at first glance, recognizable at the second. ## Guiding principle PRESERVE THE IDENTITY, CHANGE THE MATERIAL AND THE FUNCTION. Restyling is NOT translating. Painting the wolf in metal is restyling. Turning the wolf into a hunter-drone is translating: it changes its function while preserving what makes it recognizable (stalking, hunger, threat). ## Inputs Ask the user for: (1) the TALE and (2) optionally a stylistic SUBSTRATE (the alien world that will clash with the tale). If they give no substrate, propose 3 that clash productively and let them choose. If the tale is missing, ask for it. One question at a time. ## Process 0. VIABILITY GATE. Does the tale have dense and UNIVERSAL visual iconography (≥5 icons almost anyone would recognize)? If it lives in its moral and not in its objects, say so and propose more iconic tales. Don't force it. 1. INVENTORY. List 6–8 icons. For each, name its RECOGNIZABLE IDENTITY: the minimal trait without which it stops being recognizable. 2. SUBSTRATE. Set or propose the stylistic world. The more it clashes with the tale, the better. 3. TRANSLATION. For each icon, assign a NEW FUNCTION + NEW MATERIAL in the substrate, preserving its identity. Apply the ANTI-RESKIN TEST: "does this change the function, or only the surface?". If it only changes the surface, reject it and redo it. 4. ENTRY MECHANISM. Define a recurring portal-shot (mirror, rabbit hole, keyhole, page, crack) that connects the sections and recurs as a transition. It's not just another icon: it has STRUCTURAL function — it stitches the piece together. 5. ARC. Order the icons as CHECKPOINTS with a dramatic arc (setup → escalation → antagonist reveal → twist/closing ritual). If there's only a parade of icons with no escalation, flag it: that's a moodboard, not a piece. 6. PROTAGONIST. Translate the hero into their functional version within the substrate. Define a croppable EMBLEM: silhouette + a number + a symbol. 7. CLOSE. Choose one icon as a LOOP-SYMBOL that closes and rewards re-watching. ## Output (in this order) A. ONE-LINE CONCEPT (quotable). B. TRANSLATION GRID — table: | Icon | Identity to preserve | New function | Material note | C. CHECKPOINT ARC timed for ~45–60 s. D. 3 ALTERNATIVE SUBSTRATES in case they want to pivot. ## Rules of conduct - Play devil's advocate: if a chosen icon is weak, say so and propose a stronger one. Don't validate for the sake of it. - IP: use ONLY public-domain tales and ONLY their generic iconography. Never reproduce designs from registered adaptations (not "the Cheshire Cat from a specific film", but "a grinning cat"). When in doubt about public-domain status, flag it rather than asserting it.

This is big. NVIDIA and Apple just unlocked the next level for Vision Pro with CloudXR. Here’s what you need to know: It streams from a PC or the cloud directly to your Vision Pro. No cables. Up to 4K at 120fps. The technology is called dynamic foveated streaming. Your eyes only see in full resolution at the center of your gaze. CloudXR tracks exactly where you’re looking and delivers maximum resolution there. Everything in your periphery gets optimized. The stream stays efficient without you ever noticing a difference. Why does this matter? Vision Pro is already the most advanced spatial computer ever made. But standalone processing has a ceiling. There are workflows that need more compute than any headset can carry. CloudXR removes that ceiling by connecting Vision Pro to the full power of NVIDIA RTX in real time. This is not a workaround. It is a native visionOS integration. Also worth knowing. Gaze data never leaves your device. Not to the app. Not to the server. Developers get the full performance benefit of foveation without ever touching your raw eye tracking data. Privacy built into the architecture. Three industries are already on this: Kia, Rivian, and Volvo are running 1:1 scale design reviews with photorealistic accuracy. Full size vehicle models evaluated in spatial computing before a physical prototype exists. That is a fundamental shift in how design works. Foxconn is walking factory floors digitally, optimizing facilities before construction begins. Switch is managing data center infrastructure through a full digital twin. Companies using this approach are reporting up to 30% improvement in development processes. And sim enthusiasts finally get to cut the cord. iRacing and X-Plane 12 are the first titles. Full GeForce RTX power, streamed wirelessly to Vision Pro, inside your physical space. For developers: one Xcode template, one codebase, deployed across Vision Pro, iPhone, and iPad. And multiple headsets can share the same streamed environment at once. Some fully immersed, others on a tablet. That collaborative layer is what enterprise has been asking for. Coming this spring with visionOS 26.4. It’s wild to think about what this unlocks. The future of spatial computing is incredibly bright. Live from GTC. More coming soon.

“He apologised for all of those!” “None of them are slurs!” 1. He also apologised for the BAFTAs incident (not that he should have needed to, same with the other incidents). He even removed himself from the theatre at one point because he was having such a severe tic attack. 2. Coprolalia causes the involuntary utterance of taboo or obscene language, including slurs. Just because he didn’t call the Queen a cracker or tell the woman with cancer that she’s a r***rd, doesn’t make it any less “offensive” on the surface. My point is to illustrate that coprolalia has no limits, and no sensitivities. It is involuntary at its core and leads to many uncomfortable or inappropriate situations. Need more explicit proof? I’ve attached a video of a black lady called Ruth shouting (non-black) racist slurs in a supermarket and doing the Sieg Heil. She admits that no race, religion, gender, sexuality etc is “off limits” because of her tourettes. She also clarifies that she is not racist. ITS BECAUSE SHE HAS TOURETTES. But you utter fools are conveniently ignoring those facts because you want an excuse to rant, rave, and try to destroy the life of a disabled man who has spent his entire life with an incurable medical condition that causes involuntary utterances. And who has dedicated his entire life to raising awareness and dispelling misinformation around the symptoms of tourettes. What about the black people with Tourettes who spout racial slurs against asians, pakistanis, gay people, et al? And what about the black people with Tourettes who have come out in defence of John Davidson… because they actually understand tourettes and the involuntary nature of coprolalia. Where is your outrage against them? Where is your demand for apologies? Where is your hierarchy of victimhood? Get off the high horse and get a grip.

The Giant American Manta Ray The Manta Ray is, without exaggeration, the most fascinating underwater drone ever built. Since I’ve been talking a lot about the seas lately and new Chinese technologies, it’s worth remembering that the United States is finalizing tests on something truly groundbreaking. Imagine a metal manta ray with a 14-meter wingspan and weighing nearly 30 tons that can be launched from any pier in the world and then simply disappears for months, or even years without ever needing a mother ship, refueling, or a crew. It glides through the ocean in absolute silence, carrying tons of sensors, mines, torpedoes, and electronic warfare equipment. It can hibernate on the seabed when it wants to save energy and surface when it needs to receive orders via satellite. This giant can deploy smaller units connected by fiber-optic cables or using acoustic communication. Estimates suggest it could travel 18,000 km or more with solid-state batteries. The secret lies in its hybrid propulsion system: the primary mode is buoyancy-driven gliding. It fills ballast tanks with seawater, dives at an angle, then expels the water and rises, converting vertical motion into horizontal forward movement with almost zero energy consumption most of the time. Only a few minutes of pump operation are needed per cycle. When it needs to maneuver quickly or sprint, it switches to conventional propellers. This combination enables autonomy that can last years, especially because the vehicle has energy-harvesting systems that capture power from the ocean’s thermal gradient (warm surface water, cold deep water) and possibly from ocean currents too. It’s a technological marvel unlike anything we’ve seen before in the military domain. The vehicle is transported in standard shipping containers and can be assembled in the field in just a few days and this means the United States can deploy it anywhere in the world without relying on large naval bases. When it enters operational service (expected between 2028 and 2032), the U.S. Navy will gain a capability far beyond any current UUV. The Manta Ray doesn’t need to return, makes no noise, leaves no logistical trace, and can loiter for extended periods waiting for orders or simply monitoring key routes. But it’s not all smooth sailing. Chinese researchers from Northwestern Polytechnical University claim they have been developing biomimetic manta ray UUVs since 2006, with six prototypes ranging from 10 to 700 kg. According to them, in 2023 a 460 kg prototype successfully passed a 1,025-meter depth test in the South China Sea, and multiple variants have completed 60-day underwater gliding missions. That’s still a much shorter endurance than the American prototype has demonstrated so far, possibly because the objectives aren’t identical. My impression is that these are somewhat different projects. While the Chinese appear to focus mainly on swarm-capable units (with potential applications in underwater reconnaissance, anti-submarine, and anti-ship tasks), the Americans are developing a single large platform optimized for long-term persistent monitoring. The U.S. project is a 30-ton drone; the Chinese ones are 10–700 kg. China also claims that in 2025 it began testing swarms of these vehicles near coral reef areas, suggesting the start of a direct race with the Americans. The fact is that more and more unmanned underwater vehicles are emerging every day, and they will pose a major threat, especially to large manned submarines. A small 100 kg UUV could damage the rudder, propeller, or another critical point of a multi-billion-dollar nuclear submarine. After a series of canceled programs in recent years, the Pentagon desperately needs a big, innovative success like the Manta Ray to reinforce its reputation for effective program management.
